Electrical power is changed inside the flash tube to ultraviolet radiation for
curing paint. Never trigger flashes when the flash head is not applied to
the surface:
•Ensure sufficient safety distance and do not flash directly into eyes
from a short distance (5 m or less) because the emitted ultraviolet
radiation (UV-A, UV-B, UV-C radiation) can cause eye and skin
damage.
•Do not look directly into flash reflector; the flash may be
accidentally triggered.
•In case of damage to skin or eyes caused by ultraviolet radiation
consult a physician immediately.

Contact with the flash generator’s capacitor voltage is life threatening.
Therefore, opening the housing and repairs may only be done by
authorized customer service personnel:
•Never open the device – high voltage, risk of death!
•The unit may only be connected to a power supply with working
equipment grounding conductor.
•Use only lamp plugs with flawless contacts. Burned down or
corroded plug contacts may cause a fire.
•Defective plugs may lead to defective plug sockets.
•To prevent damages, avoid leading cables across floors. If this can
not be avoided, make sure that the cable is not damaged by
vehicles, ladders, etc. Damaged cables and housings need to be
replaced immediately by authorized customer service personnel.

The flash tube is filled with xenon gas. There is negative pressure inside
the flash tube. Plasma develops during flashing due to electrical energy
being changed to radiation. This plasma development then causes
positive pressure inside the flash tube. At the same time, the glass tube is
exposed to strong mechanical forces. Minimal defects of the fused quartz
glass, visually impossible to notice, may possibly lead to the explosion of
the flash tube.
•In case the flash tube explodes, there is a danger of tiny glass
particles flying around. The user of this equipment needs to make
sure that he/she is protected (e.g. by wearing a pair of safety
goggles).
•The flash tube can only explode during the flash process.
Therefore, the flash head should never be directed at a person
during flashing.
•Immediately disconnect the flash head from the generator if the
flash tube becomes damaged. Electrodes carry high voltage!
•Flash tubes must only be changed by authorized and trained
personnel.
•The flash tube must only be changed after the device is
disconnected from the power supply and is completely discharged.
The flash head must be disconnected from the generator during the
flash tube change.

Safety hints pertaining to the generator
Safety hints pertaining to the generatorSafety hints pertaining to the generator
Safety hints pertaining to the generator
The UV Flash Dry System 15/700 is equipped with capacitors which are
charged with a charge of 700 volts. The capacitors store the electrical
power. During flashing, this energy is changed by the flash tube to
radiation.
If a failure occurs inside the generator, it is possible that the changing of
this energy does not happen inside the flash tube but at another place
inside the generator.
Reasons for this can be damage to the electronic parts, faulty cables or
damaged circuit boards. One of the main reasons for an explosion is a
malfunction of the capacitors itself. Should one of the capacitors be
defective, then all other capacitors in line are affected by this defect and
also become damaged. In this case, this would result in the explosion of
all capacitors and other electronic components.
In such a case, the user of the equipment would experience the explosion
as a loud bang. The electrolytes inside the capacitors may leak out of the
housing. This liquid is not toxic.
The metal housing could also become damaged. In our experience, there
is no specific risk for the device’s user who is close to the action.
However, the loud bang of the explosion may lead to health problems.
In an event like this, the flash generator must be immediately
disconnected from the power supply and sent to an authorized customer
service department.

The flash system has a safety switch that prevents that high voltage is
carried to the flash tube electrodes when the system is in stand-by mode.
High voltage can only be found at the two electrodes when flashes are
triggered by simultaneously pressing the green START buttons.
The flash head is equipped with an automatic dump mechanism that is
also triggered when the device is disconnected from the power supply or
switched off. It takes approximately 30 s. from the time the device is
switched off or disconnected until the capacitors are safely discharged
below 80 V. The device must not be opened during this time span.

Description of services
This system is used for drying small defects in paint work, mainly of
automobiles. Until now it was common to dry fillers and paint with
infrared and sometimes also with ultraviolet continuous light. The drying
times between each step were relatively long.
The UV Flash Dry System works with flash which has a very high light
intensity. The filler or paint is dry right after the flash procedure and the
next work process can be done. This substantially shortens the work time
(circa factor 10). The fillers and paints of Spies Hecker and Standox were
specifically developed for use with this system. The flash spectrum is
calibrated to match the spectral sensitivity of the paint components.
The user applies the reflector to the spot to be dried and presses both start
buttons simultaneously. The flash procedure is triggered. A light indicator
strip runs up alongside the flash head and indicates the charge level of
the generator. The system initiates the flash sequence automatically when
the end of the indicator strip is reached.
This procedure is repeated 10 times during each drying process. The
process is interrupted when you release both start buttons and the
indicator strip runs down.
When one or both start buttons are released, the fan on the trolley starts
up. The flash head needs to be placed in the intended holder on the
trolley. The flash head and the flash tube are cooled. The fan
automatically switches off after ca. 15 minutes.
If the area to be dried exceeds the lit area, the flash head must be moved
and the start buttons need to be pressed anew.
If the mains voltage is switched off on the trolley but the stored power is
still at a high level, the system dumps its power automatically (safety
feature).
If, for any reason, the system can not trigger flashes when both start
buttons are pressed, the ‚Error’ lamp on the flash head will light up.

A possible failure could be that the spark of the flash tube arches over to
the housing, note description of faults further below.
Work sites are generally very dusty. Therefore, the devices need to be
dusted off regularly. There is a filter mat built-in at the underside of the
trolley. This filter mat needs to be cleaned or changed periodically.

The UV Flash Dry 15/700 consists of a UV Strobe 15/700 flash generator
and UV flash head MH 15/700 with UV reflector and is used to dry
ultraviolet sensitive automotive repair products like fillers, foundations and
paints by company Spies Hecker and company Standox.
Use of the UV Flash Dry System is only permitted with products from
company Spies Hecker and company Standox.
The flash generator UV Strobe stores power which is released in the form
of ultraviolet flashes via the connected flash head. During this process,
the flash head with mounted reflector must be placed onto the intended
part or, if that is not possible, held above the part to be dried.
The spectrum of the flash is suited, in connection with chemical
characteristics of the ultraviolet-sensitive paint, to dry the paint with one or
more flashes (for drying times / number of flashes see paint
manufacturer’s product information).
